It will only be a couple of tankfulls for the whole weekend. Still bloody cheap if you ask me in the Fun v pounds stakes

2 x tank full = £80
1 x Campsite Fee £6.50
1 x Beer Money £40
1 x LWV entrance fee £10
1 x NBO Charity contribution £10
1 x Decent blat around the lanes/moors = £PRICELESS

Enjoy it you lot - I'll be playing at White Van Man(TM) and building flat pack furniture in my new gaff

Priceless memories indeed - I can still remember the run home from Muppet Camp last year. Sunshine, great roads and four Scoobs

Oh, will most definitely enjoy it. Was hoping for a 'bit of a scenic tour along the twisties' on the way up, rather than the boring 'motorway all the way', and boy does it sound like I got what I was hoping for. After all, why else did I buy a Scooby?

The bad new is, in order to get up to the REALLY good roads as soon as possile there WILL be a boring Motorway treck to start otherwise it would take 1/2 day to get up to the good stuff and leave little time to enjoy the moors

Good news is, the motorway/dual carriageway stuff will only take about an hour, and the rest of the day is great

Cool

See you all on Sunday, going up to my folks with a load of furniture stuffed in the scoob on Satuday but not 'till l8r in the day.

Had a sneak preview of CW's route last week, shame I'll miss out. You'll be passing near where I'll be on you're way off the NYM, so if you see a DBM waving like a crazed fool in the Thirsk area, it'll probably be me

I'll be gone

Everyone up to speed with everything then? Meet at Woodall, split into managable groups, go do a 220 mile "session", get to campsite, have a few sociables, rough it, get up, nip down the road (2 miles) to a MASSIVE Scoob gathering

Put me FOOKIN NAME DOWN Weekends don't get much better than this

Mikee Singh, not heard from you for a while, you have remembered etc haven't you Saturday not Sunday 10 not half ten, NO fashionably late

You will probably be waiting for me

I hope some of those coming can read a map, as the route is going to be a little sketchy as I've lost one of the recce tapes and I'm too tired to do the usual standard of notes, sorry
